About this map

The Perdido River forms the natural boundary between Baldwin and Escambia counties along the Florida-Alabama state line, anchoring this 1994 survey. The settlement of Enon sits in the eastern portion of the map, marked by its Water Tank and proximity to a local Claypit. The landscape is defined by an intricate drainage system feeding into the Perdido, with numerous family-named and descriptive watercourses such as Schoolhouse Branch, Jackson Springs Branch, and Narrow Gap Creek dissecting the terrain.

Local history is preserved at the Holly Grove Cem, providing a focal point for genealogical research in this rural pocket of the Gulf Coastal Plain. The map illustrates a region transitioning between traditional agriculture and timber management, evidenced by the network of light-duty and unimproved roads connecting scattered homesteads to the primary river system. These waterways, including Brushy Creek and Buckeye Branch, reveal the historical reliance on natural drainage for land division and early transport.
